Abstract
Traditional cognitivism treats a situated agent's point of view in ter ms of deficit egocentrism. Can Ballard et al.'s framework remedy this characterization? And will its fusion of computational dna enactivist explanations change assumptions about what cognition is? ''Yes'' is su ggested by considering human infants' developing spatial knowledge, bu t further questions are raised by analysis of their robot counterparts .
